Hello all,

 

Has anyone successfully mapped a discord post to show up in a Facebook Page? I have a Work in Progress Discord channel and i want the posts in that discord to post to Facebook Pages.  For the life of me theres an error every time.

Hi ​@EDDocGamer,

 

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience, but do you mind sharing the error message that you are getting. Also ensure that any sensitive information is obscure for security purposes. Thank you.


I have linked to my Discord Account - i have staff privs.

 

I test my step and i get the last three posts i made to discord.  I select one of them and see the different items of the post, from Content, to Attachment IDs, Attachment URLS, Attachments Content/type, Size, etc.

When i get into FB Pages, I need to put the facebook pages ID into the “Create Page Post”  section under my own FB Pages account.  Even though i have allowed Zapier access to this page, I still need to put in the page ID of the FB Page under “Page” and then it asks for the following fields:

 

  • Message - to which im mapping the Discord “Content” Tag info.
  • Photo - to which im mapping the Discord “Attachments Filename” Tag info.
  • Link URL: To where im attaching the Discord “Attachmentts URL” info.

I then keep getting this error:

 

 

 

 

Failed to create a page_stream in Facebook Pages

The app returned "(#100) Tried accessing nonexisting field (access_token) on node type (Business)".

 

What this error means:
The error indicates that the Zap is unable to retrieve the necessary data from the previous step to create a Facebook Page post. Specifically, it seems that the values for "link_url," "message," and "source" are not being passed correctly from the Discord step, which is causing the Facebook Pages action to fail.

How to fix it:

  1. Check Previous Step Output: Review the output of the Discord step to ensure that the fields you are trying to use (attachments' URL, content, and filename) are present and correctly formatted.
  2. Verify Field Mapping: Ensure that the fields in the Facebook Pages action are correctly mapped to the output of the Discord step. For example, confirm that "link_url" is mapped to the correct attachment URL, "message" to the content, and "source" to the filename.
  3. Test Previous Step: Run a test of the Discord step to confirm that it outputs the expected data. If it does not, troubleshoot the Discord step to ensure it is functioning correctly.
  4. Check for Empty Values: Make sure that none of the fields being referenced are empty. If any of the expected values are missing, the Facebook action will fail.
  5. Re-test the Zap: After making any necessary adjustments, re-test the entire Zap to see if the issue is resolved.

 


Hi there, ​@EDDocGamer 👋

Hope you don’t mind me jumping in to lend a hand! And thanks so much for sharing that screenshot, it’s much appreciated. 🙏

Do you have access to more than 150 pages? If so, it’s expected that you’d need to manually enter the Page ID, since there’s a pagination limitation that prevents more than 150 from being listed.

But if you’re working with fewer than 150 pages, then it might be a permissions issue on the connected Facebook account—which could also explain the error. 🤔 The error message "The app returned "(#100) Tried accessing nonexisting field (access_token) on node type (Business)" points to a problem with the access token, which may suggest that the account doesn’t have the right permissions. Can you double-check the requirements listed here and confirm that the account meets them all?

If everything checks out on the permissions front, then it could be that the Page ID is incorrect. You can follow this guide to confirm you’re using the correct Page ID. 

Hope this helps point you in the right direction. Please keep us posted on how it goes, want to make sure this gets sorted!


Hi Sam,

 

I got it figured out - it was actually the wrong ID.  But while I have you, can you explain how a discord post with a VIDEO would translate to a Video in Facebook that posts?  Im only getting a link, but the picture files work well.

 


Yay! So glad you got it sorted, ​@EDDocGamer 🙌

But while I have you, can you explain how a discord post with a VIDEO would translate to a Video in Facebook that posts?  Im only getting a link, but the picture files work well.

Ah, looking back at your screenshot it seems you’re using the Create Page Post action which only supports images. To post the video you could use the Create Page Video action instead:

Can you give that try and let me know if that does the trick?
